AB Discrimination and inequality on the basis of gender and sexual diversityremain prevalent in today’s society (Beck et al., 2010; Dispenza et al., 2012;Dugan et al., 2012; Barrientos and Cárdenas, 2013). These situations of exclusionand rejection show the need to train individuals and organizations in the preventionof violence, harassment and inequality (Kattari et al., 2018). Teacher training, bothinitial and ongoing, is a fundamental axis of action, and consequently, the study ofthe opinions and beliefs of students and teachers on these issues. This research,therefore, analyses the sexist and prejudiced attitudes toward homosexuality of futureteachers in the Spanish educational system. The sample of this research is madeup of 452 students in the Degree in Primary Education Teaching and in the Master’sDegree in Compulsory Secondary Education, Upper Secondary Education, VocationalTraining and Language Teaching (MUPES) with an average age of 24.74 (SD = 6.51).For the collection of information, a questionnaire was used consisting of questions onsociodemographic and cultural aspects, the Inventory of Ambivalent Sexism (ASI) byGlick and Fiske (1996) validated in Spanish by Expósito et al. (1998), and the Scaleof Attitudes of Heterosexuals toward Homosexuals (HATH) by Larsen et al. (1980),validated in Spanish by Barrientos and Cárdenas (2010). The main results include thepresence of significant differences (p < 0.01) in the levels of ambivalent sexism (hostileand benevolent) and in the maintenance of negative attitudes toward homosexualityaccording to sex and political ideology.
